1 pkt (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed
cup low fat (2 percent) cottage cheese
cup (4 ounces) feta cheese
2 lrgs eggs
4 egg whites
cup non-fat milk
1 teaspoon mixed Italian herb blend (see Note)
3 green onions and tops, thinly sliced ( 1/2 cup)

Preparation

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place spinach in a sieve and press out as much liquid as possible, then place leaves in a 1 cup measuring device and press again to eliminate all moisture. Set aside. 2 In a food processor or blender, mix cottage and feta cheeses until smooth. 3 Add eggs and egg whites and blend well. Mix in milk and Italian herbs. Add spinach and green onions and pulse briefly to mix. Pour into a deep dish, 9 inch pie pan. 4 Bake 40 minutes or until quiche is puffed and a knife inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool on a rack for 5 minutes before cutting into wedges to serve. 5 Note: Italian herb seasoning can be found in most supermarkets. You can also mix small amounts of basil, oregano, marjoram, thyme and sage to create your own blend.
